How does a quote request work?
- First contact — you describe the situation through the form or by phone. A few lines are enough.
- Assessment — we review the information, any photographs, the condition of the property, the access and the constraints.
- Site visit — where necessary, a technician attends to refine the evaluation. The visit is free.
- Detailed quote — scope, services, timescales and price, with no vague lump sum and no surprises.
How much does specialist cleaning cost?
The price depends on the floor area, the level of clutter, the volume to be removed, the presence of health risks, the need for disinfection or decontamination, odour treatment and how accessible the property is.
A single cluttered room is not the same job as an entire house in an unsanitary state, or as a sanitary intervention after a death. That is why we do not quote over the phone without seeing the property or photographs.
Costs and assistance
Depending on the situation, part of the cost may be covered: home insurance, social services, or the French tax credit on personal services.

What our clients say
Frequently asked questions before contacting us
Is the quote free?
Yes. Both the quote and the site visit are free and carry no obligation. The request lets us evaluate the services required, the amount of work, the surfaces to be treated and the constraints of the job.
How can I request a quote for after-death cleaning?
Describe the situation, the floor area, the condition of the property and whether there are odours or biological traces. Photographs help produce a more accurate quote but are not required.
What information should I prepare?
The type of property, the approximate floor area, the floor level and vehicle access, plus a brief description of the condition. Nothing more is required from you: whatever you would rather not write down, we will see on site.
How quickly do you reply?
Within 2 hours during the day, 7 days a week from 8:30am to 9pm. A site visit can usually be scheduled within 24 to 48 hours, and sooner in the Paris region or where there is a health risk.
Do you handle Diogenes syndrome and hoarding?
Yes. Sorting, clearance, waste removal, pest treatment, disinfection and restoration of the property, with respect for the person concerned.
Do you operate across France?
Yes, throughout mainland France. Lead times are shortest in the Île-de-France region, but our teams travel to every region.
Is confidentiality guaranteed?
Yes. Our vehicles are unmarked, our teams carry no identifying markings, and no information is passed to third parties, neighbours included.
Can I make the request on behalf of someone else?
Yes, and it is common. We deal with whoever you name as the contact: a family member, a guardian, a landlord, a managing agent or a notary.
